A new technology has been developed that will significantly reduce oil and fuel consumption in trucks and buses. The ONBOARD ECVD system is a refiner that enables trucks to save up to 11 cents on the mile, avoid oil disposal liabilities, preserve engine life and give us all a cleaner environment.

During catastrophes, it is truckers who deliver the life-saving supplies needed in devastated cities. When hurricanes and tornadoes rip through towns, it is the truckers who come with supplies, and truckers that transport out debris. During the coldest, darkest parts of winter, many states have propane shortages that result in emergency declarations, which are solved by the transporting efforts of, you guessed it, truckers. And, after the water was contaminated during the fiasco in West Virginia, it was truckers who delivered the life-sustaining bottled water to local residents.

Their much underrated duty deserves a spotlight, and local authorities need to understand the federal regulations in times of emergency, so these great Americans can do their job when we need them most. So, let’s stand beside our nation’s truckers, especially when disaster strikes… which seems to be happening a lot these days.
